Porthleven Beach

This three-mile stretch of sand with steeply shelving shingle sits in front of the historic Pothleven Harbour. When the tide is out, walkers can head to Loe Bar and the Penrose Estate from the granite harbour.

Surfing is popular here with experienced surfers as there are strong undercurrents that make it unsuitable for beginners or swimmers.

Come to this lovely stretch of sands for an idyllic day out…
